In: Statistics and Probability
The population mean and standard deviation are given below. Find the required probability and determine whether the given sample mean would be considered unusual.
For a sample of
n=70
find the probability of a sample mean being greater than
214
if
μ =213
and
σ =3.5
Population mean (μ) =213
Population standard deviation (σ) =3.5
Sample Size (n) =70
We have to find, P(X̄ > 214);
We will consider the assumption of Normal distribution from which we get,
Z ~ N(0,1); Therefore,
